GT35R STI vs E55

Buddy has a 498WHP STI. He is a HORRIBLE DRIVER.

What would a stock E55 take to beat him from a roll etc?

Any tips on mods or what MPH to roll from?

that's in a heavier Legacy chassis with only 420whp...sorry buddy you don't stand a chance even with a sh*** driver. stage 2 would get whooped as well, STi's weigh in around 3100-3200lbs.

If those numbers are on Dyno jet or Mustang , then forget it even with if you have Pulley and headers .

E63 AMG
you will loose and bad if its really 500hp. 500 awd vs 500 rear wheel is very very different in my book. That and the weight difference. Once the turbo spools it will be game over.

My boosted g35 with a gt35R with smaller compressor housing spraying meth made 390hp/420tq and would walk my e63, a friends 500hp sti walked my g hard

You will not stand a chance. My friend used to have one of these, with his tune he was over 500whp.

He ran 10.9x@129.xx

He launched it once for me when I was a passenger, my neck still has nightmares. It was just sick.

Granted he had alot of money invested and if i remember right he went through 2 blocks setting this car up. When it was done, it was just insane.

Actually helped my decision in buying one.
